Chapter 216 Instead Defeat


    In the evening, once Emrys and Nte had filled their stomachs, like a young couple, she happily


    looped her arm through Emrys‘ as they strolled down the street.


    They ended up strolling around for over two hours.


    Nte didn’t show the slightest sign of fatigue, and from time to time, she pointed at some peculiar


    ces, telling Emrys, “Look quickly, Emrys. This ce used to be a favorite among the wealthy


    women. And this one, and this one too.”


    Emrys asked with a puzzled expression, “Nina, how do you know so much? Could it be that you…”


    “Hehe!” Nte blinked with a smile and said, “Because I’m a journalist, I often conduct undercover


    investigations and such. However, I assure you, I’ve never done anything out of line.”


    “Of course, I believe you,” Emrys said.


    Atst, the reason for Nte’s corruption was found. It turned out that she was influenced during


    various undercover investigations.


    All right, given the circumstances, I will forgive you for the matter concerning the study materials on the


    computer. Emrys quickly came to understand.


    The two were strolling when suddenly, a man with a scarred face approached them. They had almost


    passed him by when, unexpectedly, the man with the scarred face turned back, reaching out to block


    Nte’s path.


    “Well, well, who do we have here looking so familiar? Turns out it’s our Beautiful Reporter!” The scar-


    faced man stared at Nte, smirking.


    Nte’s face changed instantly, and she tried to leave with Emrys. However, the scar–faced man


    swiftly blocked their way, sneering coldly, “What’s the rush, Beautiful Reporter? Why not visit my ce


    again today? You might find some unexpected surprises!”


    Emrys immediately understood. It must have been during Nte’s previous undercover investigation


    that she had inadvertently revealed her identity, which had consequently caught the attention of the


    scar–faced man.

    Emrys didn’t waste words, instead, he coldly uttered two words. “Move aside!”


    “Well, isn’t this brat quite audacious?” The scar–faced man instantly shifted his gaze onto Emrys, but


    then narrowed his eyes and said, “Hey, kid, you’ve got a good look. How about considering working at


    my ce? There will definitely be benefits beyond your expectations.”


    His gaze was intriguing. It was clear at first nce that he wasn’t involved in any legitimate line of work.


    Nte’s face was icy cold as she took Emrys‘ hand and said, “Let’s go, Emrys. We don’t need to


    bother with this mad dog. I refuse to believe that he would dare to do anything to us in broad daylight.”


    Emrys nodded.

    However, the moment he took a step, he suddenly heard the scar–faced man bellow, “Brat, how dare


    you steal my wallet!”


    Clearly, the scar–faced man had no intention of letting the two off the hook. The so–called theft of his


    wallet was nothing more than a pretext for picking a fight.


    Nte said indignantly, “When did we ever steal your wallet? Don’t make false usations!”


    The scar–faced man sneered, “If you didn’t steal my wallet, then exin this. Why did my wallet.


    disappear after I exchanged a few words with you? If you didn’t steal it, then who did?”


    “You…”


    Nte was seething with anger, ready to argue with the scar–faced man, when she suddenly heard


    Emrys speak up. “Nina, as you said earlier, this is a mad dog. What’s the point in reasoning with such a


    creature?”


    The scar–faced man’s expression darkened instantly. He barked, “Brat, watch your tone when you


    speak.”


    “Oh? What’s with my tone?” Emrys retorted.


    “Just by looking at you, I can tell you’ve never been beaten up before. You’re trying to show off in front


    of a beautiful woman, but you better understand who you’re dealing with. I’m not someone to be trifled


    with!” The scar–faced man clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking ominously as he prepared to strike.


    However, he suddenly noticed a slight chill in Emrys‘ eyes. In a swift motion, Emrys raised one leg, his


    heel soaring higher than the scar–faced man’s head before he forcefully brought it down.


    Bang!


    The scar–faced man copsed on the spot, clutching his blood–drenched head and screaming


    incessantly.


    Instant defeat!


    Emrys didn’t spare another nce at the scar–faced man. Instead, he turned to Nte and said,


    “Nina, there’s no need to waste so much breath on a mad dog. If he tries to b


    ite, a swift kick will do the trick.”
